This Design-Bid-Build project consisted of constructing a 12-Lane Heavy-traffic
Truck Gate on Terminal 18, Harbor Island. The Gate includes eight truck scales
and a three-story 6000 sf Administrative Building. The gate functions as either
prime ingress or egress for the terminal. Also included in the scope was the
demolition of two Radio Towers standing more than 300 feet.
Vanir served as Project Manager for the Port of Seattle, coordinating with Port
staff; overseeing the design, advertisement, and award of the work; and
coordinating with Port Engineering for the CM efforts.
Vanir developed scope and coordinated the removal of two Radio Towers on site and
the remediation of environmental Hot Spots.
The project was complicated by the fact that Harbor Island is designated a
"Superfund Site" by the EPA, and all excavation had to be performed by 40-hour
qualified workers.
Vanir performed all contract change order negotiations with the designer for the
Port. Vanir also developed checklists from existing Port information for use in
evaluation of Design Development and Final Design.
